The Deacons have been drummed by better teams this year and it's taking a toll and the fact that they've lost Hartman won't help. Plus, the Wake Forest defense is just bad. North Carolina continues to do what they are expected. They are beating the teams they should and it's made way for them to show up as one of the top three teams in the ACC this season. It helps that Finley has been able to work the offense as the quarterback and put points on the board when they need them. He's made his way to one of the top quarterbacks in the conference. I feel good about taking the Wolfpack at home to cover -19.

NC State owns a 66-39-6 record all-time in this series, but Wake Forest won by a 30-24 final score at home a year ago. The Wolfpack snapped a two-game losing streak with their impressive win over Florida State and will continue to roll with a second straight cover. Final Score Prediction, NC State Wolfpack win and cover ATS 41-17.

Wake Forest could be down to their 3rd String QB tonight: http://bit.ly/2RKPWKE

Wake Forest Will Be Without Their Starting Quarterback vs. NC State - Pack InsiderWake Forest will be without their starting quarterback, Freshman Sam Hartman, who broke a bone in his foot against Syracuse this past Saturday. Hartman had passed for 1,984 yards (55.3%) and 16 touchdowns (8 interceptions) through 9 games. He also rushed for 275 yards and 2 touchdowns. Sophomore Jamie Newman has been named the starter … http://bit.ly/2RKPWKE

Sam Hartman out with broken leg and Kendall Hinton is apparently nursing a hip injury. Hard to imagine Wake Forest scoring much today, this could be a 1 way route. Give me NC State and the UNDERS. Wolfpack wins 42-13 type of game....total of 69.5 is too many points.

NC State has a slight advantage on offense in this one, especially when going to the air, but NC State has even a bigger advantage on defense in this one. The Wolfpack have the nations 38th-ranked total defense, and that would be even better if NC State didnt already get rolled over by the high-powered offenses of Clemson and Syracuse. Where NC State is extremely tough defensively is in the rushing game and most of Wakes success on offense has come on the ground this season, but I don't think this team has the offensive line to contain the Wolfpack defensive front. If Syracuse can beat Wake Forest by 17 points then I certainly think NC State can beat Wake Forest by 17 points. Further, Wake Forest has a lot more players out with injuries and NC State is relatively healthy. I'll lay the points and take the Wolfpack tonight. Predicted Score: NC State 42 - Wake Forest 17
